ive had 205/60r/14's on my sei's a while back that were mirada's not really a good tire, i had to get this last set was fuzion Hri's b/c my father picked up 2 tires that were good from work, they are 185/60r/14 there pretty good all around and tread life is decent, will go back to the 205's i want 215 but 205 might be pushing it for the sei rims

so they fit well? no rubbing? the width between those and the ones i want to run is identical, the only difference is the height, it would be 42 mm overall circumference difference, if you think of the tire as a square, that would be just over ten mm per side. what is the offset and the rim width of the SEI rims?Originally Posted by gp02a0083

Okay, which rims?
In order from most-favored to least:
Fits
Si's
Fat-Fives
LS Mesh/Webs
(all 16's with same offset, right?)
I'm trying to get these with Bridgestone 185/55's for $335:

They're over $2,000 from Honda, without tires. They're from the '10 Fit Sport.
Im running a 225/45/15 with a +35 offset and its retarted close to rubbing.
i sized the rim to be a 14x9.5 with a +20 mm offset
yeah it will fit under the car and stick out 2.2 inches farther than the stock 14 rim. But rub probably when you lock to lock the steering wheel. you would have to ru na rim with a +20 or lower offset to get it away from the front knuckes and rear trailing arm.

16s or 15s?
when i went from 15inch rim to a 16 inch rim i lost performance but i had a better top end speed...maybe it was the tire? but for me 15s are just as good

15's seem to be the best compromise between comfort, looks and performance.
i run 205/50 /15 on mine 3g and 5g Sir and they are great.
just got some dunlop direzza DZ101's for the Sir in that size and i dont think i'
ll go backto the kumho's i was running.
the dunlops are much quieter, more comfortable and have far more grip than the kumho.
the price may be a bit ore, but well worth it.
oh, and on a 3g, the speedo is still accurate to within a few km/h
The Fit has 16's, which are pushing it for my taste. Mike has 17's on his coupe, and they're too much for me.
Instead of starting a new thread, I'll continue off of this one since it's pretty close to being the same subject.
Anyone recognize these rims?
anyone know the offset of deleorean rims? different sizes in front and back, but guess what? they are 4x100

I measured one, but I actually don't know how they measure a wheel's width. Taking a tape across the entire width of the wheel gets 6 5/8". On the inside, the flanges move apart slightly as they go "up," but it would appear that 5 1/2" is the inside width.
when did i mention SEI rims? you could always use two sets of delorean rims from either the front or back, i think the front had a weird offset like a front wheel drive
Check post #52.
...what the fuck?

This thread got really weird.
anyone know if a 175-70-15 would fit? if it did if i ever get the freaking money,like an armored truck falls out of the sky, Hoosier quick time DOT drag race tires will fit, they look completely bad ass on old hondas with the big Hoosier in white letters on the sidewall. that was THE tire to run when racing these cars. they are street legal, I just wouldn't want to drive them in the rain.
according to the tire size calculator the speedo would only be off 3 mph.
